Random Notes

Pak Lah Lah is falling down, falling down. o_0

IPTA admission results are out. I'm happy for my friends who mostly got offer to study in UM, UTM, UPM and USM. ^_^ I myself am offered to read Computer Engineering @ UTM. Hmmm...it's tempting! Many people are telling me to just study in local uni so that I won't need to suffer and can continue being happy-go-lucky...Making a decision sometimes could be so bothersome. Grrrr....

Anyway, after much consideration, I still stick by my decision to study Mathematical Science in NTU no matter what. No pain no gain? Perhaps...XD

Dramas

Yesterday was such a dramatic day for me.

I always love to watch dramas on TV and sometimes I feel like dramas in real-life are even more entertaing to watch. I guess that is the main reason why I'm more into Reality TV shows than scripted shows. lol...

Dramas are entertaining to watch (or listen to) but certainly they aren't as entertaining when you get involved in them. There are ups and downs in our lives. We all enjoy the ups but not the downs, right? Yesterday was definitely my down time. I don't like it but I had to deal with whatever craps I was thrown at.

I just realise that it seems like I got myself into dramas more than anyone. Is it because I am a jackass that tends to pick fights with people? Yea I guess so. 0_o...As a typical Geminian, I am outspoken and emotional. I don't hide my feelings and I do share my thoughts with my close friends and family. If you're someone I care about, I will directly tell what I feel or think. I am aware that sometimes things that I said may hurt people's feelings but that is never my intention. The thing is, I prefer to be straighforward just to get my points delivered. I don't like to bend my words. But wait, I think I am just not skilful enough to find the balance in between. I always come off as either harsh or satirical. I find that I have difficulty to express myself fully, probably because me = complexity.

Well, after all it's up to the listener to interpret my words and I respect the fact that everyone holds different opinions. We all are unique individuals, aren't we?
Funny though, people like to discuss and argue on stupid things. I respect other's opinions and I appreciate people expressing their feelings to me in all seriousness.

Here is an open message to a dear friend of mine: As far as I'm concerned, it's totally rude and offensive for you to tell me you would flip your middle finger if I were in front of you due to the difficulty that I had caused to you. I have already apologized to you for the inconvenience caused. What else do you want me to do? I sincerely hope you don't simply flip the bird at anyone. To a lot of people, it's not just an expression, dude. Trust me, I had a bad experience in regard to this. And you know, there must be plenty other ways to let your anger off.

There were so many dramatic events happened yesterday. The scariest one is to receive the call from my dad. He fell off the road in Ong Kim Wee. But thank God, he is alright now. Someone has just reminded me yesterday was father's day. Oops! Happy Father's Day to my papa. :)

Honeymoon

Now that I have become jobless, I can enjoy the time of my life. ^_^

Yay! Finally I can fully enjoy my holidays. It wont' be for long though since I have to leave for Singapore on 21st July.

Yesterday, I had such a great time in Sagil with Alvin, Jiun Shyong, Seng Kiat and Weng Khong. Later in the afternoon, we went to sing at GoGo KTV. After singing several songs horribly, I literally collapsed on the sofa. -_- I was so exhausted after staying awake for the past 30 hours. All I needed was sleeping. Zzzz...

2 reflections on my outing:
1) No matter how great your camera is, you can't fully capture the beauty of mother earth. You gotta see it with your own eyes.
2) Looking at the rocks, the waterfall, the sea and the sky reminded me the vastness of universe. I feel so small and vulnerable. Anyway, I know the journey of my life is a long and winding road. Just gotta be strong to live a wonderful life. ^_^

Things to do during this honeymoon include:
1) Follow the hilarous BBUK9 show. I'm rooting for Katreya, Luke, Rachel and Rex to win. It's so sad though to see Steph getting evicted over Mario. Damn the UK public!
2) Host my third $urvivor online game. :)
3) Take photo, apply for passport, hostel and SOLAR by the deadline.
4) Help to finish my mum's book-keeping job. >.<

Bye Singhel

Oh ever since I left Sudong (aka Singhel) I thought I may have more time to blog but turned out I was wrong. I spent most of my time sleeping and watching TV shows instead. :p

Overall, working as a Customer Care Officer in Sudong for the past 6 months (18/12/07-09/06/08) is a wonderful job experience. Nope, I ain't being sarcastic. I like the experience that I have gone through, friends that I have met, stuff that I have learned and also dramas that I have witnessed. Not to mention, salary-wise, it's way better than my previous part-time job. Hehe...

Even though sometimes I felt miserable working in Singhel and I bitched at a lot of things, I still find that it's quite enjoyable to work there. If any juniors are looking for a part-time job post SPM/STPM, I would definitely recommend them to work there. ^_^

Happy 20th Birthday!

Oh well. Now I’m turning into 20 years old. *ahem* I should act like a mature adult since I’m getting older. =.=”’ Hmmm…not really, I like being childish. Bwahahaha.... We all are still very young. XD.

So last week when I got to know that I had to work for noon shift (2.30pm-12:00am) on my 20th birthday, I was like, “Ewww…having to work on birthday completely sucks”. I approached my team leader, Kak Rozana to change my off day so I need not work on my birthday. But eventually I didn’t change it as supposedly my dear KPC members were going to celebrate b’day for me on the next day, i.e. later tonight.

I was thinking to myself, after all, working on birthday isn’t that big of a deal. Just gotta deal with it. As usual, I rushed to the office at the last minute (okay, I’m just being punctual..:p) and the same old working day just began once I logged in through the call master and pressed the “auto-in” button. Aside from some nice birthday greetings from my colleagues, I didn’t expect anything different from the callers, my colleagues and my boss. It’s your birthday. Oh, so what? And like who cares? You still have to answer calls. There is no excuse to slack your duty. It’s just like you still have to attend class when your birthday happens to fall on a school day.

I kept staying in front of the monitor and answering calls until around 4:45pm. That was when Kak Fizah came and asked me to put on “aux” mode once I ended my call with a caller. Okay, I put “aux 1” for break. Now what? Oh mee gawd, I turned my head and I saw Kak Rozana holding a birthday cake while all my ICC teammates started to sing the birthday song. Yep, seriously I was in utter shock for a second as I didn’t expect this at all. I did spend some time thinking what my friends were gonna do to trick me on the next day but never did I think about what my colleagues would do on my birthday.

Never mind, I like this pleasant surprise more than any actual presents (if any). I was surprised and touched at the same time. Then, after making some wishes, I turned too happy till I went straight to cut the cake before I blew off the candles. LOL...silly me. I can’t blame myself though because I rarely got the chance to cut a birthday cake. I just got excited when I saw the cake which looked super delicious. Yep, I actually felt hungry at that time. Luckily they stopped me before I made the blunder since the correct thing to do after making a wish is to blow off the candles first! Alright, I quickly blew them off and cut the cake full of thick American chocolate. It wasn’t easy to cut because the thick layer of chocolate won’t melt away in this air-cond office.

Kak Rozana was kind enough to take over the job to cut the cake while I got to continue taking in calls. Then suddenly she disappeared herself after cutting a few pieces. Only after she came back I realized that the fragile plastic knife was broken into two parts with one being stuck in the middle of the cake. LMAO! That really made me laugh out loud. We had to use a large pen knife and some spoons to cut the cake instead.

This little office celebration for my birthday (and also for my farewell since I’m leaving the company next week) really made my day. It’s indeed a happy birthday for me. I don’t think I ever shook as many hands in one day. Lol…I am really thankful of what my dear colleagues from ICC and Hi Card department did for me. Thank y’all so much.


PS: I wanna thank all my friends and family members who wished me well via internet and sms. It’s really a nice gesture from you guys. For those who forgot to send me a message, screw you! :p Just joking…I can understand that life can be such a bitch that we may forget important things like my birthday. Lol…I mean we all have tons of things to be busy with. :)
